Smash Match® Impairment Challenge

Smash Match® is a timed activity that involves matching and placing simple traffic-related shapes on the Smash Match® mat, first without and then with the impairing effect of the Fatal Vision® Goggles. This activity shows that our ability to accomplish simple tasks greatly diminishes once our senses are impaired. Printed messages on the mat promote positive driving behaviors that reduce the risk of traffic-related serious injury and fatalities.

Instructional materials include a Smash Match® user’s guide that helps the instructor effectively deliver an experience about the dangers of driving impaired. Participants work with their instructors to develop strategies to prevent impaired driving and promote sober driving.
